Basic Examples  (4)

Find your current geo location:

Wolfram Language code: Here

Find the next sunrise at the current geo location:

Wolfram Language code: Sunrise[Here]

Draw geographic maps and primitives containing your geo location:

Wolfram Language code: GeoGraphics[Arrow@GeoPath[{Here, Entity["City", {"Paris", "IleDeFrance", "France"}]}], GeoBackground -> "ReliefMap"]

Compute distances and azimuths from your geo location:

Wolfram Language code: GeoDistance[Here, Entity["City", {"Berlin", "Berlin", "Germany"}]]
Wolfram Language code: GeoDirection[Here, Entity["City", {"Berlin", "Berlin", "Germany"}]]

Applications  (2)

Draw a large geo disk around your current location:

Wolfram Language code: GeoGraphics[GeoDisk[Here, Quantity[3000, "Miles"]]]

Compute travel directions from your location to somewhere else:

Wolfram Language code: td = TravelDirections[{Here, Entity["City", {"NewYork", "NewYork", "UnitedStates"}]}]

Find out the duration of the trip by car, assuming no stops:

Wolfram Language code: td["TravelTime"]

Draw the path in a map:

Wolfram Language code: GeoGraphics[GeoPath[td]]

Properties & Relations  (1)

Here is defined to be identical to $GeoLocation:

Wolfram Language code: {Here, $GeoLocation}

Setting the value of $GeoLocation will affect the value of Here:

Wolfram Language code: $GeoLocation = GeoPosition[{50, 0}]
Wolfram Language code: {Here, $GeoLocation}

Reset $GeoLocation to its original value:

Wolfram Language code: $GeoLocation = FindGeoLocation[]

Here is not independently settable:

Wolfram Language code: Here = GeoPosition[{50, 0}]

Its value was not changed:
